Austral parakeets in the early morning

[This post is primarily a test of sharing/viewing videos from Vimeo]

Here’s a very short video I took while doing field work in Patagonia in 2005. It’s early in the morning, the sun is still behind the ridge, so the lighting is poor. Make sure you have your volume up so you can hear these birds. They are Austral parakeets, which are fairly common in this part of Chilean Patagonia.
